While this rule sounds good in theory, unless those are give away seats, the kids in the front row are probably from rich families. Most of them barely say thank you when you give them a freebie. Not always true of course, but that's been my experience as someone who's dad has season tickets near the front row.

Oilers fan here, I think you are directing your hate to the wrong party. I'm as upset as the next guy in not being able to choose what to watch, but the leafs and their fans had no say in this. It is a decision made by the NHL and TSN.
